Video Walkthroughs
Setting up your Telnyx SIP portal account so you can make and receive calls:
1. Connect Skype to a Telnyx SIP trunk
In this section, you'll use Skype for Business Topology Builder to
Start Skype forBusiness Topology Builder:
Click Start and type Skype for Business Server. Then click on Skype for Business Server Topology Builder.
Navigate to Skype for Business Server > [your site name] > Shared Components.
Right-click the PSTN gateways node, and then click New IP/PSTN Gateway.
On the Define New IP/PSTN Gateway screen, type sip.telnyx.com and click Next.
On this screen, leave IPv4 – Use allconfigured IP addresses with its default value and click Next.
To define a root trunk for the PSTN gateway, provide the following values (Note: Be sure that the peer you're defining is running and using FQDN or an IP address you specified):
Listening Port for IP/PTSN Gateway: 5060
SIP Transport Protocol: TCP
Associated Mediation Server: select the Mediation Server pool to associate with the root trunk of this PSTN Gateway
Associated Mediation Server Port: This will be the listening port that the mediation server will use for SIP messages from the gateway (5068 by default).
Click Finish.
Right-click the Skype for Business Server node, and then click Publish Topology.
2. Create a dial plan
In this section, you'll be creating a dial plan, a voice policy, call route, PSTN usage and trunk configuration.
Note: We recommend that you create a custom configuration based on your location and your company policies. The script we're providing is just an example of a basic configuration. You should use this exact script only if you have a default environment with no voice settings. |
IMPORTANT: Before running this script, make sure you've defined a PSTN gateway in your topology for the selected site, and that you've backed upyour existing Enterprise Voice configuration |
Copy and paste the text following these instructions, or your custom script into a text editor.
